Thanks - 750MC Locost Competitor
Dear Marshals,
Thanks for yet another great season. We completed the 750MC Locost Championship at Mallory on Sunday. This was my 2nd season, and I managed not to need your specialist skills, other than the "routine" stuff that we all need you for, such as sorting the grid, flag waving etc. Unlike last season when I needed you 4 times, and you were all great - not 1 of you took the p*ss at my self-enforced errors! Anyway, a big thank you from me, and hopefully we won't meet again next year!!!! We can't race without you guys and gals. Have a quiet off-season Dickie Locost 71 aka Richard Brown www.TeamDickie.co.uk |

Glad not to have been of service! Hopefully you will avoid us next season as well!

The Locost final was a great race very close look forward to the same next year.
Locost appears to be a good entry level class with good racing and plenty of competitors. |

Your Welcome. Thanks to you and the other Locost drivers for such a brilliant season.
On Sunday I was at the Harpin with a second day Marshal and we were both very impressed with how you are all so disciplined when racing so close. Cracking race See ya round the raceways next year (not trackside ;p ). |

Thanks to all the Locost drivers for some great racing - I've had the pleasure (?) of the company of one or two of you after unplanned excursions......

A pleasure! This race last year at Mallory I had the misfortune to pile into the barriers on the entry to the hairpin - and was very well looked after by 3 marshals. This year I managed just 1 spin at the hairpin in qualifying, with no contact at all.
I really do believe that we offer some of the closest racing going, and generally without contact. I like to believe that this is shown by the fact that we always get the marshals applauding us on the slowing down lap - I certainly always applaud them back - perhaps a testament to my days sprinting/hillclimbing before moving up to racing. All the best, and see you next year Rich Brown |

Richard Brown + hillclimbing? Any relation to the former Shelsley record holder?
Anyway, only seen Locost at the start of the year at Mallory, but some good racing on that occasion. Thanks for the thanks. |

Mr Pye gave you all a very nice write up in Autosport this week, so I'll try to make a special effort to catch you next year.

Just read Autosport - yep, a good write up. If only F1 was half as exciting!

I've done many a happy sprint at 3 Sisters with the Westfield Sports Car Club. A great track for "7"s
